If you have any questions regarding the lousy performance lately, please press "one". If you have doubts about the impartiallity of some of the Auto232 providers, please press "two". If you want to have a five minute quarrel about any of the subjects mentioned before, keep your credit card at hand and press "three". If you want a full half hour argument, keep your credit card at hand and press "four". If you have drunk too much, and want to sober up, you will be rerouted to the most recent CCC discussion about it. Then press anything, as you haven't got the faintest what you are doing and where. If you're a computer chess lover make peace and hang up on me, as I'm just a stupid computer." Come visit the Dutch newsgroup, there we are quarreling about Fritz SSS in the Dutch championship. They say the Dutch chess federation was bribed by ChessBase. Ahhhhh.... the evil empire.... <OUT!> <OUT!> (eerie music) Jeroen ;-} It's time to hit the delete button, moderators, and on more that this post. Frank, call me sometimes. We can practice English phone conversation. You're welcome: "Good Morning, Jeroen speaking." "Good Morning, my name is Frank Qznkskh, could I speak to Jeroen's Teddy Bear?" "Who can I say is calling, sir? "I'm sorry, my name is Frank Quisinsky." "Thank you sir, but I'm awfully sorry sir, my Teddy Bear is in a staff meeting at the moment. Maybe you want to speak to his secretary?" "That would be fine, thank you...." ... "(dark voice) Zimbu the Monkey, good morning, can I help you....." well, time to hit the delete button with more than one message, moderators. As I said before.
